The phone was hung up, and everyone looked at Ma Long expectantly.
"How's it going? Mr. Ma Long asked if there was time..."
Yan Hanben's face was full of eagerness, and he was the first to ask.
"The specific time will be around 12 noon tomorrow, but please listen to me first. Things may not be as simple as you think..."
Ma Long raised his hands and pressed them in the air a few times, signaling everyone to be quiet and listen to his explanation.
"The large army will indeed pass through Zhongshan Road through Guan City, and will also pass through Qinqiao on the way. However, if any irresistible changes are encountered during the march of the team, the large army may adjust its direction at any time, while ensuring its own safety. Under certain circumstances, quickly evacuate city n..."
After Malone finished speaking, there was another long silence in the living room.
"You mean that the large army may not be able to pass Qinqiao as scheduled? Is the entire army's marching route mobile? It will change anytime and anywhere?"
Lu Yu put down his crossed legs and asked solemnly.
It wasn't that he was concerned about whether the large army would pass through Qinqiao as scheduled. Anyway, he was in no hurry to leave here. With such a serious inquiry, he just wanted to get more information about the army from Ma Long.
"Yes, the current primary goal of the large force has become to ensure its own safety, so once it encounters a threat or obstacle that cannot be eliminated on the way, the entire route is likely to undergo huge changes, so even if we know By the time the troops pass through Qinqiao, it is very likely that they will not be able to wait for the arrival of the main force."
"Then what should we do! If we miss the main force, we will have to go to the refuge from the national highway. It will be very dangerous..."
After listening to Ma Long's words, Yan Hanben lay down on the table again, sighing, his face full of despair.
"You have to leave, so it depends on everyone's choice. Are you willing to take a gamble and go to Qinqiao to wait for the main force, or set off directly from the national highway..."
Ma Long put his phone on the table, glanced at everyone, and said seriously.
"If we can wait for the main force, I think the subsequent journey will be much safer. I suggest going to Qinqiao and waiting..."
Xu Xiaoxiao is always the first member to express his opinion. The girl's character is there. She is so straightforward that she doesn't bother to think about the pros and cons, so she simply expresses her favorite choice in her heart.
"But if a large force does not pass by Qinqiao, then we will wait in vain..."
Yan Hao objected loudly, but his tone was not firm. It could be seen that he was also hesitating about the pros and cons.
"If the large army really did not pass through Qinqiao, then wouldn't it be enough if we set off from the national highway and go directly to the Siming Mountain Refuge?"
Xu Xiaoxiao's tone was relaxed. To her, it seemed like it was just a casual conversation on the way to the supermarket for shopping.
"Xiao Xiao, what Yan Hanben means is that if we don't wait for the large army, then we will take this risk in vain..."
Uncle Ni sighed softly and patiently explained to the girl.
"Yes, then we can't waste this opportunity in vain, right? If a large army passes by Qinqiao and we choose to set off directly from the national highway, wouldn't it be..."
Xu Xiaoxiao put his index finger on his chin, hugged his chest with one hand, and murmured to himself.
The sense of depression caused by the choice made everyone's brows rise with a touch of anxiety. For a moment, the atmosphere in the living room became dull again. Everyone was silent, weighing the pros and cons of the two in their minds.
Only Lu Yu crossed his legs again and leaned on the back of the chair, enjoying himself and not having any headache at all.

"Boss Lu, have you come up with any good ideas?"
The sharp-eyed Xu Xiaoxiao quickly noticed Lu Yu's unusual calmness and couldn't help asking curiously.
"Good idea? No, no, I just feel like I don't have much choice, so I just let myself go..."
Lu Yu replied perfunctorily, and acted as if he was resigned to his fate very promptly.
After hearing what Lu Yu said, Xiao Ran, who had been standing behind him, couldn't help but rolled his eyes and tried his best to open his mouth, but in the end he still didn't say anything.
"Ahem..."
Ma Long coughed twice and saw that everyone's attention returned to him, then he spoke slowly.
"Although it is very likely that the large force will deviate from the original route and not pass through Qinqiao, I think it is still necessary to go to Qinqiao and wait. Zhongshan Road, as the original route of the large force, must be chosen after some selection. The result was that the change of route mentioned on the phone was just a preparatory measure, and the probability of it happening is estimated to be very low."
After Ma Long explained it, everyone's thinking suddenly became clear.
As the original route of the large army, in order to achieve the purpose of self-protection, Zhongshan Road must be the least variable and safest path.
Although it was repeatedly emphasized on the phone that the team might change its direction of travel, that was always only a possibility.
If there is no accident, the large force should arrive at Qinqiao on time at 12 noon tomorrow. As long as the large force arrives at Qinqiao successfully, it means that their safety will be improved on the long road to the Siming Mountain Refuge. greatly improved.
According to Ma Long, going to Qinqiao to wait for the large troops became a matter of taking a little risk in exchange for stability later on, and this transaction was not a loss at all.
"I agree with Ma Long's proposal."
Xu Xiaoxiao took the lead in raising his hand to express his attitude, which invisibly set an example for everyone.
After thinking about it, Yan Hanben and Shao Xiuqi also raised their right hands and expressed their agreement. The situation of the discussion seemed to become clear instantly. It was like the voting session at the end of the presidential election. Faced with the one-sided situation, everyone seemed to have already foresees future outcomes.
"I also agree that the risk is worth taking..."
Uncle Ni looked around and saw that most people agreed, so he slowly raised his right hand and said.
"I disagree."
At this moment, an untimely objection sounded, which seemed so harsh and abrupt in this harmonious atmosphere.
Lu Yu crossed his legs and looked at Ma Long at the table. He leaned back slightly and shifted his center of gravity, causing the front legs of the chair under him to tilt up and shake, making the whole person look carefree.
"I don't agree with Brother Ma's proposal."
"Why?"
As expected, Xu Xiaoxiao was the first to speak, asking everyone's questions.
"There is no reason, I just think he is talking nonsense and talking nonsense!"
Lu Yu raised his head and focused his gaze on a certain spot on the ceiling. The chair under him shook more and more violently with the words in his mouth.
"you……"
Ma Long was caught off guard by Lu Yu's sudden change of attitude. For a moment, he didn't know what to say and was stunned.
"What am I? I am who I am, a different kind of fireworks!"
The chair hit the marble floor hard with a dull sound.
land

Yu leaned forward, rested his elbows on the table, pressed his temple with the index finger of his right hand, and said coldly.
"I don't agree with Ma Long's proposal. I choose to split up with you and take the national highway directly to the Siming Mountain Refuge."
Suddenly, everyone present cast all kinds of looks at Lu Yu, some were strange, some were suspicious, some were afraid, some were puzzled, but among these various looks, there was the same emotion mixed in, that is. Shock.
"Why did this kid suddenly go crazy..."
Ma Long frowned and looked at this young man who had been with him for some time in confusion. At this time, Lu Yu was also looking at Ma Long quietly with a pair of red and phoenix eyes. The look in his eyes was full of madness, which made people unable to help but I doubt whether this young man's mental state is still normal.
The atmosphere was at a stalemate at this moment. Just when everyone thought that someone would agree with Lu Yu's almost suicidal method, a childish but determined child's voice sounded in the living room, breaking the silence for a moment.
"I also disagree with Uncle Ma Long's suggestion and choose to go to the shelter with Uncle Lu Yu."
"Xiao Ran! Are you crazy?"
Xu Xiaoxiao's eyes widened and he looked at the little Loli next to him in disbelief.
It didn't matter that she couldn't figure out Lu Yu's character. Why did this little loli, who was usually calm and thoughtful, go crazy?
Xiao Ran did not directly answer Xu Xiaoxiao's doubts, but asked a question that no one expected.
"Sister Xiao Xiao, do you want to come with us?"
"I……"
Xu Xiaoxiao was completely stunned. She never thought that the situation would become like this. In her heart, everyone should go to the Siming Mountain shelter together in a very united and harmonious way, instead of being divided into two groups like now. , cut off the mat and robe.
Lu Yu did not speak, with a vague smile still on his face, and his eyes revealed madness that others could not understand.
Xu Xiaoxiao was confused. Strictly speaking, Lu Yu could actually be regarded as her savior. She thought that when she had no food and water, she accidentally broke into Lu Yu's house with a lot of energy, and it was Lu Yu who gave her food; she was infected by drinking tap water. When the virus was at stake, it was only after taking the aspirin given by Lu Yu that he was lucky enough to become a strengthener.
Without Lu Yu, she would most likely have ended up as a skinny mummy, or a mindless walking corpse.
But according to normal people's thinking, in the current environment, whether to choose well-trained soldiers or ordinary young people as a backer, 100% of people will choose soldiers. After all, soldiers have received professional training and can provide more sense of security.
"It will definitely be much safer to follow Ma Long, but if it weren't for Boss Lu, I might have died long ago..."
Xu Xiaoxiao thought secretly in his heart, finally made up his mind, took a deep breath and said.
"Okay, I decided to follow Lu..."
"What are you, you go with Ma Long."
Before Xu Xiaoxiao finished speaking, Lu Yu waved his hand and interrupted the girl's statement with disgust.
"I……"
Xu Xiaoxiao was forcibly interrupted by Lu Yu. She originally wanted to say something, but when she caught a glimpse of Lu Yu's disgusted look, her face turned red and she stomped her feet unconvinced, feeling sulky.
"I will only take Xiao Ran with you and leave separately. I won't tell you the reason. If you really feel sorry for me, give me a gun so that I can protect myself on the road to avoid being robbed by zombies."
Lu Yu's face instantly changed into a slutty expression, he smiled at Ma Long, and he was blatantly asking the soldier for help in self-defense...
